Property damage can
be claimed for many things, for instance if you were the cause
of a car veering off of the road to avoid hitting you, and
this caused damage to the vehicle, another car or any other
property, even though you weren’t involved in the accident
as far as a collision goes, you would still be liable for
damages.
Property liability insurance also covers times when you hit
someone’s property like buildings, and as a result cause them
loss of income or revenue, in these cases your property damage
liability insurance covers the costs for the repair of the
property as well as the cost of revenue or income lost during
the time the property is damaged.
It is advisable to have property liability insurance coverage
to ensure that you are not held personally responsible for
damages done to other people’s property as a result of an
accident. By not having enough property damage liability insurance
coverage, you will be responsible for payment of any extra
money that is owed to the victims. Therefore, it is very important
that you give serious thought to the type and extent of car
insurance coverage that you elect to purchase.
Any additional questions regarding insurance that will cover
property damage arising out of a car accident can be obtained
from a qualified insurance professional. In addition, the
insurance commissioner's office will be able to provide you
a good deal of information about all types of insurance related
issues, including issues relating to car insurance and car
insurance companies doing business in your state.
